The "frozen" implies the matte finish.

Anyhow that car is gorgeous1 Frozen Grey with Fox Red interior :O. Absolutely gorgeous. Please post pics asap...like before you even get to enjoy the car yourself. Don't be selfish

Frozen gray looks much better than frozen silver IMO

(i think the silver has too much blue in it)

J3FF3RSON · 01-19-2012, 03:48 PM

I've been to Singapore once, anywhere good where you can open her up?

Not for straight line bursts. The speed limit on the highway here is 57 mph (90kph). One must be discreet when mashing the throttle

Curvy b-roads are aplenty though

For ultimate straightline thrill, we typically head North to Malaysia. They have an excellent highway with much higher unofficial speed limit.

It's maintenance free for me so far on the M3. See this thread:

M5 anyday for me. I don't dig the M1. The dealer normally displays the M1 in the showroom and my 2 year old was crawling all over the inside on one occasion. I promise that i will try to snap some more pics of the M1 for u oldies the next time i pop by the dealership to collect the car!
